    Description

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    An EIA has been performed for both plants. The promoter has provided the Bank with a copy of the Non Technical Summary and the Environmental Permit. In line with the Bank's guidelines, details of the Environmental Impact Assessment, including adequacy of proposed mitigation, compensation and environmental monitoring will be assessed, as well as the promoter's capacity and procedures to ensure compliance with environmental and biodiversity regulations.

    The promoter has confirmed to comply with the EU procurement Directives, including publication in the Official Journal. Details of the procedures applied by the promoter will be reviewed during the appraisal.
